Which of these pronouns is third-person plural possessive

Third person plural pronoun is THEY.
If you want to create a possessive pronoun out of that one, that would be THEIRS.

CAN SOMEONE WRITE AN ARTICLE ABOUT HONEY AND BEES, PLEASE AND THANK YOU
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Bees are very small and Amazing insects. It's body is divided into 3 Parts-Head, Abdomen and thorax. In the front part, they have 2 legs and the back part they have 4 legs.The color of it's body is yellow and Black. The stringer of the Bee is very poisonous.These insects belong to the order Hymenoptera. The most common species is Apis mellifica. These are well-known for their organized social life and great economic importance. The nest of honey-bee is called bee-hive, which is commonly found on tall trees. The Bee swam is divided into three- Workers, Queen and Drones.

Worker bee forms the majority within a hive; size is very small; work in number of capacities—cleaner, nurse, builders and architects, technician, soldier and porter.

Drone bee—slightly larger than the workers; noisy and idle; comes out of the hive only at the time of nuptial flight.

Queen bee—very large with a tapering abdomen; general­ly a single matured queen is present in each hive; responsible for the laying of eggs.

A queen bee can lay 2,500 eggs in a day.In the  lifetime of a HOney bee, it will  be able to produce 1/2 teaspoon of honey.Worker bees have a 6 to 8 week lifespan.Honey bees are super-important pollinators for flowers, fruits and vegetables. This means that they help other plants grow! Bees transfer pollen between the male and female parts, allowing plants to grow seeds and fruit.

A colony of bees consists of 20,000–60,000 bees and one queen. While a queen bee can live up to 5 years, worker honey bees only live for about 6 weeks and do all the work.  Honey bees have been producing honey in the same way for over 150 million years.The only insect that produces food that humans eat is the honey bee.

Thanks to you, because of you today I came to know about bees. I wasn't aware of Bees this much. I researched alot about them and had written the answer.
